Your opinions are much more interesting when you form them on your own ;) On the contrary, I have no interest in changing your opinion about anything.

You also state you believe you cannot convince me no matter what you say. That means you have an intent to change my opinion.

With the help of a friend I figured out what I have been trying to say: In Pet Peeves II I was attempting to express my frustration when someone makes an opinion without first educating themselves on the subject they're basing their opinions on. Prejudices often cause people to believe that certain religions or texts cause people to think a certain way, which isn't always true, as I attempted to prove. Does that make any sense? Here we go!

Also, to delve further into what you believe, do you believe in an afterlife? Many criminals fear death due to the belief in Hell, according to some surveys. Also, I'm not trying to change anyone's mind about anything :) I'm simply trying to find out what people's opinions are. If you notice in anything I've written that I've tried to change any opinions, please point it out! :3 So, would this mean that you agree or disagree with putting certain criminals to death?

Punishment means you have to live with your actions, and their consequences. If you die, you don't have to think of what you have done, and feel remorse for it. Oh, and look in the mirror, you will see pompousness spring forth from you. "Convincing" one to change their opinion is not an valid form of discussion. Theres a fine line you walk with placing people on pedestals, you might find yourself on one of them. Execution is not a form of punishment, it is revenge.
